Subject: [ruby-core:41621] [ruby-trunk - Bug #5737][Open] WEBrick doesn't support keep alive connections for 204 and 304 responses


Issue #5737 has been updated by Hiroshi Nakamura.

Status changed from Closed to Open

Sorry for not responding.

As a maintainer, I'll review the patch later.  I don't understand now, the rationale why we should do keep-alive for 304/204 even if the response is neither chunked nor having content-length.  Handling empty body would be needed instead?

Bug #5737: WEBrick doesn't support keep alive connections for 204 and 304 responses
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5737

Author: Aaron Patterson
Status: Open
Priority: Normal

Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0dev (2011-12-07 trunk 33966) [x86_64-darwin11.2.0]


WEBrick doesn't support keep alive connections for 204 and 304 responses.  If a 204 or 304 response is made along with a keepalive, a warning is issued and webrick closes the connection.

I've attached a patch that fixes the problem, and I will apply it if it's OK.  :-)
